Film Description
Something Like A War is a chilling examination of India's family planning program from the point of view of the women who are its primary targets. It traces the history of the family planning program and exposes the cynicism, corruption and brutality which characterizes its implementation. As the women themselves discuss their status, sexuality, fertility control and health, it is clear that their perceptions are in conflict with those of the program. Something Like a War is an excellent resource for the study of international development and aid, population control, reproductive rights, health and women.
